The Eclipse in August is Gonna Be a Big Deal

Brace yourselves - it's now the quiet before the storm.

On Monday, August 21, 2017 all of North America will be front row and center to see the Great American Eclipse of 2017.

In my opinion, the Great American Eclipse is nothing short of cosmic poetry in motion. It almost seems intelligently designed when you think about it.

At a time when our country is so divided, the eclipse will literally divide it in half with a diagonal, horizontal Path of Totality.

• That same dividing line, however, will bring millions together from all over the world who will converge along it to see the eclipse at full totality.

Path of Totality.

• What a poetic phrase that is.

Path of Totality -- the path (up to 200 miles wide) that the Moon's shadow traces on the Earth during a total solar eclipse. [http://www.earthview.com/resources/glossary.htm]

Beautiful verbiage for a beautiful celestial happening.

Only along the Path of Totality can you see the eclipse at full magnitude. The rest of the country will still get a good show, though.

Here's some quick bullet points about the eclipse:

He even gives a statistical prediction of human travelling behaviors surrounding the eclipse and what to expect as word of the coming eclipse spreads and begins to go viral.
